Chapter 175 - Yua Meets Naomi

( The Nakatomi tower, Country J )

Mr. Nakatomi lost a huge chunk of money with the alliance's defeat. The company saw a huge share price fall as the company was projected to have the worst quarter since its inception. 

What's more, was that the kid he considered to be interesting, yet not worth helping was now a giant whose net worth was more than the entire Nakatomi Corporation. 

Mr. Nakatomi knew that Yua harbored some feelings for Rudra albeit friendly ones, the kid was not worthy of his daughter before, he was a nobody, just a gamer with talents. However, now he has the backing of the titan Ethan Grey and is the guild master of the best guild in Hazelgroove kingdom. Now he was worthy of his daughter, or at least that's how he judged him to be. 

He called Yua over, she was very upset with her father, she had repeatedly shown intent to leave the alliance, however, her father had rejected the idea strongly. Now she along with her guild had sunken along with the alliance boat. She went from a guild master of a first-rate guild to an ordinary member in another guild. 

However, joining Rudra's guild was not the issue here, she was happy to join the True Elites, it was because she had started to feel as if Rudra had became cold to her. They did not have the same warmth in friendship that they used to. Also, she noticed a new girl in the Elites roster a girl named Naomi. She was like a flower in the guild adored by everyone, who was also very friendly with Rudra. 

She felt jealous when she saw her being all friendly with Rudra and had a vivid memory of her appearance. She felt threatened by that girl, and it was the first time in her life that she felt such a feeling. She was a princess and boys flocked around her for her attention all her life, yet Rudra was the first guy she was a bit attracted to, however, he was so friendly with another girl who was also very pretty, that made her insecure and jealous. 

When her father called her in to have a conversation she was in a really bad mood. However, when he expressed his approval regarding her pursuing Rudra should she choose to do so, she became very happy.

( True Elites headquarters, Purplehaze city, Hazelgroove kingdom) 

Yua actively looked for Rudra in the headquarters and found him chatting with Neatwit and Karna, she confidently approached him. 

The trio stopped their conversation and looked at her, she said: " Now that I am part of the guild, I wish to contribute to the guild with the best of my abilities, hence I just wanted to let you elders know that I am ready for any tasks you give me ". 

Karna and Neatwit looked towards Rudra, who chuckled. The true elites were not like most guilds, the guild members had complete freedom, it was rare for quests to be issued even once in two weeks. There was no plan, everyone did whatever they wanted most of the time. The only time the guild came together was during the dungeon runs or war. Maybe smaller groups were made for leveling. 

The service guild had already been entrusted as the farming corps of the guild and instructed to gather resources deemed important by Rudra. 

Rudra started to stockpile important resources that the guild would need on upcoming dungeons. Having 100,000 members to farm resources and exp for guild members helped a lot, as the main guild members gained levels like crazy. 

Huge chunks of exp would be added every day even when they were not out leveling themselves.

Rudra said, " umm, there is nothing to do, the guild doesn't have many stringent rules, you are free to do as you please ". 

Yua disliked that answer, she wanted to show her worth by completing tasks and getting Rudra to warm up to her again. 

It was at that point that Naomi came over and curiously looked towards pinklotus, her woman instincts told her that the girl did not like her. However, she wondered why?

Neatwit asked Naomi " Why are you here? ". 

Naomi smiled saying " brother I need help with a quest, can one of you three strong assaulters help me? ". 

Yua frowned, the girl was Neatwit's sister, no wonder they both looked so similar and the girl was so loved in the guild. 

Karna said, " I'm sorry but I need to log out of the game, I have been playing for 40 hours straight now and need some rest ". 

Rudra did not mind helping Naomi however he had to stay in the guild to welcome the four new players, who could be coming anytime now. 

Neatwit felt like helping with quests was a waste of time and he would much rather level up, however, he could not give that answer to his sister, hence he said " You can go with PinkLotus, she is a great player, also you can become good friends " 

Yua thought it was a good chance to get to know her opponent and readily agreed. Naomi having no choice also agreed to the proposition. 

The two shook hands and introduced each other. 

" Hey I am Naomi "

" Yua Nakatomi". 

It looked amiable on the surface however, it was in fact a real life version of the famous anime scene where lasers would shoot out of girls eyes in a glaring contest. 

Both of them realized that the amiablity shown on the surface was just a facade and they did not get along well at all! 

The two left , mentaining the facade and chatting amiably , and the three boys were none the wiser. 

Little did they know that while they were gone , fighting , the real beauty of the guild made her debut in all the male members hearts. 

Skyla , Bo , Jhonny English and Yume had just joined the guild!
